Dercum's disease (Adiposis Dolorosa) Questionnaire


Please fill out this questionnaire if you are so inclined.  I am doing my own research as I do not see any doctors doing it.  Thanks.  NOTE:  Make sure that the URL for this page DOES NOT have a squiggle in it, (i.e., it does not look like: /~Dercums_Data).  If it does, go to this page (same questionnaire) before you start filling in the blanks.  Thanks! 

NOTE TO TRAVEL SPAMMER -- Please stop. You fill up the buffer space and no one can fill out the questionnaire. And NO ONE sees the URLs. Thanks.

One recent oddity has been seen -- if, after filling out and submitting the questionnaire, you get an error that says:

FrontPage Error.

User: please report details to this site's webmaster.

Webmaster: please see the server's system log for more details.

Don't get upset. 

Your answers did get registered, and I can get access the answers.  If you want confirmation, send me an e-mail.  If it does something else, tell me what it did ;-)  I'm sorry for all this hassle, but the problem seems to be that I have an old copy of Microsoft FrontPage (web publisher).
